I snapped this while I was pumping gas in Davis, CA. It was one of those ads you see on the top of the gas pump, usually selling soda or hotdogs, this ad was selling fresh dairy! I thought it was pretty humorous as I use to live in Lansing Michigan and I know for a fact I would never see green graffiti in Lansing, but in Davis, this is very fitting. Davis is the home of some of the most food conscious people I’ve ever seen. I like it.

The notes on the ad say, “never seen green grass” with an arrow pointing at the cow and then “GMO Alfalfa” pointing at the over saturated (aka photoshopped) green field the cow is standing in.

I'm not a health expert but a sociology grad student with a deep interest in health, food, and how we organize our lives around the deceivingly simple question, "what should we eat?"

My goal here is to use this blog to record what I'm learning as I "dig to the root" of conventional "wisdom" about food, diet, and fitness. This blog is motivated by my own struggles with health and my journey to find solutions. My opinions and ideas will definitely change over the lifetime of this blog, this is a journey in the true sense of the word, but I hope some of my post will get people thinking and questioning their choices and decisions regarding health and food.
